So here I am again. Haven't written in a few days. Me, Rach, Bob and Stef went to a Cubs game on Thursday. It was a lot of fun. We sat in the bleachers. I had a little too much to sip on and got sick. The fact is that the Gel's hot wings did some damage too as always.

 

I am starving. I won't have a lunch break time until 2:30 or so. I'd do anything to get out of here and have something to munch on. Bob is coming over at 7:30 tonight. That should be fun. We have the home run derby on. I am not a big fan of the participants. I am glad no Cubs are doing it because it messes up people's swings.

 

Tomorrow I am going to have a day to myself. I need to mail off a couple of items including a rebate. I am going to go to the gym and have a nice lunch. I have the house to myself. At night is the All Star Game. I can't wait to see it considering all of the Cubs involved.

 

Wednesday I work all day again. I am going to go home and sleep after work. It should be an easy day for me.

 

Thursday I have a half day and then go to Rach's. I plan on sleeping during the afternoon and going out to eat around 8 or so. We will then go up to the theatre and see the midnight showing of the Dark Knight. It should be awesome.

 

Friday I am having another Jake day. I think that at 3:30, I am going to go see Dark Knight again with my Dad.

 

I need to send my Cubs 8x10 off to Jim Hickman. He played for the Cubs in the latter part of the 60's and early 70's. He was an All-Star for the Cubs in 1970. He also played for the Mets.

 

After him is George Altman. He is a former negro leaguer who was a Cub in both the early and late 60's. He was also a Cardinal.

 

After him will probably be Ron Santo. He charges $10 per signature so I am a little iffy about getting him. I have several Ron Santo things I want to send out. I have an 8x10 of his number being retired and another of him during his playing days. I would also like to get him to sign my Cubs chair. I don't know if I will get him on that though.

 

I guess after those guys, I would like to get maybe Don Zimmer on it and maybe Mark Grace. Depends on who is signing. I am going to start requesting confirmation people will sign the item before I send it out.

 

After those guys, I will have Andre Dawson, Rick Reuschel, Andy Pafko, Phil Cavarretta, Glenn Beckert, Milt Pappas, Ron Santo, Jim Hickman and George Altman on my 8x10.

 

I am still banned from Sports Collectors. Jay is a thief. That is a shame. If I ever see him, I am robbing him but just for fifteen dollars. I am dead serious about that.
